Too bad “passing the buck” isn’t an Olympic event

Langford clarifies Olympics proposal- al.com

“Clarifies” in the sense that he’s now saying that the $250,000 payout to the Alabama Sports Festival has nothing to do with the — I wanted to say “Quixotic”, but BMLL makes Don Quixote look sane and rational — utterly, hallucinatorially, mad attempt to bring the actual Olympics to Birmingham. In fact, says Larry, it’s just the ASF’s fee for holding the events in Birmingham. Also, the guy from the ASF will be working on the Olympic bid as a volunteer. Huh.

“If it’s somebody on my staff who made this mistake, they won’t make it again,” he said.

It was you, Larry, it was you. And you will.
